Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.
Ok, ok... after countless hours doing research into the components and talking with several manufacturers and a whole dumpload of peeps... here is the shopping list for the sickest build I could come up with. I REALLY appreciate input as it has steered me away from a couple of what looked to be...
I was very interested in the XP-120 but according to DFI it will cover one of the PCI-E slots and as I plan on using both for SLI it is not an option...
Anyone pair this with the new Toledo core yet? I am looking at a Athlon X2 4800+ and do plan on OC'ing a little bit... :)

OCZ EL DDR PC-3200 / 400MHz / Platinum / Dual Channel
OCZ4002048ELDCPE-K
Any other suggestions?
Ok, maybe not the ultimate but about the best tech I could come up with.
I am currently running a P4 2.4C at 3.1ghz w/a BFG 6800 OC and am I looking to upgrade... this upgrade needs to last and run everything coming out for the next 2 years or so. Assuming no huge leaps in technology here is...
Anyone have hold of one of these chips yet?
I am planning on building a new system in the next couple of weeks and wondered if anyone OC'd their chip and what results they got?
Thanks,

Ok.... here are the modifications I am thinking of after suggestions.
I like the look and cooling aspects of the Thermaltake Armor case:

Anyone have any experience with these?
Also, I think going with the 4400+ makes...
Ok, besides the change in Heatsinks... since I don't plan on pushing this box, I see no reason to watercool... does anyone have any other suggestions?
You guys like that chip or do you think I should wait a couple months and see if the Intel part would be better?
Thanks for all the input!!!
Here is what I have so far for a gaming rig that should last at least 2 years and offer awesome performance and reliability.
Any recommendations or suggestions would be appreciated!!!!
Also, I really dont have a budget -- although i would like to stay under 3,500.00
